I’m a traveling healthcare worker and my current contract is for two hospitals about 30 minutes away from each other. When I applied for this contract there was no mention on the posting of working at 2 hospitals, but the manager mentioned during my interview I would occasionally have to work at a sister hospital as well. I agreed that was fine, and when setting up my living arrangements I made sure I was closest to the hospital I was told I’d be at most of the time.
My start date rolls around and she’s completely flipped things so that I’m now at the sister hospital the vast majority of the time and almost never at the hospital that is close to me. To make things even better, I don’t have badge access or computer access at the sister hospital, and construction has closed down the road that I was initially taking to get to the sister hospital (construction is expected to last for almost the entire length of my contract), making my commute over an hour long each way (more than triple what it would be at the closer hospital).
I’ve brought up these concerns (via email, text, over the phone, and in person) to my manager multiple times and she’s assured me she will fix the technological problems asap, but then I never hear back. When the next schedule came out, she has me exclusively at the sister hospital, so I email her to ask her if it could be adjusted because of the above troubles, she ignores my email until she comes into work to tell me “no schedule changes will be happening” and starts chewing me out in front of multiple coworkers for never coming to her about my technological problems…
Since then, I have started texting her every single day as soon as she gets to work asking if she has any updates on my access problems, and every single day she texts me some excuse as to why she forgot and why it hasn’t been solved yet. Everytime I see her in person I make sure to bring up that she told me she would fix things and ask if she has an update in front of as many coworkers as possible so that she has to admit that she’s apparently extremely forgetful in front of everybody, as well.
Not the craziest instance of malicious compliance but it does feel good to annoy the shit out of her with daily texts and constant pestering after she tried to embarrass me 🤷
